The Feast Plugin + Theme Setup converts your current site setup to our modern setup with the Feast Plugin and recommended settings.
Your category and posts will remain as is, but everything else will be updated to the entirely brand new, rewritten format through the Feast Plugin that keeps your site more up to date.
Feast Plugin Setup
The Feast Plugin takes your WordPress site to the next level, offering what should be a $5,000 theme for just $249/year.
The back end functionality has been fully rewritten for compatibility with the block editor, plus updates to:
- SEO
- pagespeed and core web vitals
- user experience
- accessibility
All of this can be done yourself by following the tutorials, but for bloggers with too much on their plate already, we now offer a full site conversion white glove package.

Hosting
Due to a number of issues with software-based staging sites, we will only perform the Theme + Plugin Setup on sites hosted with BigScoots managed WordPress hosting, using the staging site.
Timeframe
After purchasing, you'll be sent a form to fill out which includes a link to a calendar to set the date that works for you.
We create the staging site, perform the conversion and testing on the day you set.
This means that on the day of the conversion, no work can be performed on the live site.
You dictate when this happens by picking the date and time.
Additional reading
Review the migration guide to make sure your site is compatible and ready to be converted.
Important: after converting the site, reach out to your ad network and request they update their ad targeting with the new site structure and layout.
